The White House has confirmed that a small number of documents with classified markings from President Joe Biden’s time as Vice President were found in his home in Wilmington, Delaware.
The documents were discovered during a search for documents in Biden’s two Delaware homes, according to Special Counsel to the President Richard Sauber. Sauber said a “small number” of documents with classified markings were found in a storage space in Biden’s garage in Wilmington, with one document being located in an adjacent room.
In brief remarks to reporters, the president said the documents were found in “storage areas and file cabinets in my home, in my personal library.” Sauber said after the initial documents were found by Biden’s personal lawyers, they examined other locations where records might have been shipped after Biden left the vice presidency in 2017.
The White House has not yet revealed the contents of the documents, nor the reason for their presence in Biden’s home. However, Sauber said that the documents were not related to Biden’s current work as President.
The discovery of the documents comes days after it was disclosed that sensitive documents were also found at the office of Biden’s former Washington institute. The White House has not yet commented on the nature of those documents.
The Biden administration has not yet revealed any further information about the documents found in his home. It is unclear if any further investigation into the documents will be conducted.
